Sakonnet River Bridge No. 250 | State Archives Catalog

The records consist of one copy of the historic bridge documentation (text and photos on archival quality materials) prepared by by the PAL project team for the Rhode Island Department of Transportation. Even though the Sakonnet River Bridge No. 250 would not be eligible for listing in the National Historic Register of Places until 2006 (at which time it will have met the age requirement of 50 years), the RI Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration have reached concurrence with the RI Historical Preservation & Heritage Commission to prepare a Rhode Island Historical Resources Archive documentation on the structure. The documentation has been generated to partially satisy a future mitigation plan in the event that the bridge undergoes a major rehabilitation or requires replacement.
